sostenuto pedal| In music, the middle pedal on a grand piano with three pedals (many have only two). When depressed while certain keys are held down, it prevents the dampers of those particular keys from returning to the string until the pedal is released. It allows the hands to play other notes while still sustaining the sound of a previous set of notes. |
